what have you done with that fkn bellend called anxious,we aint paying any ransom

Me too , Cap . 6 lovely STARS .

well done Liverpool FC

Always conducted themselves and their business in the best way.

From a Reading fan.

well done liverpool, reward for some great play this season.

Ibrahima & Donny , Thank you , Lads . Thank you !

TFFT ! Would have haunted me the rest of my days if they had won- and if a team that lost 13 games in the league were to win the CL what would that say about the quality ! Well done and thank you sooo   much FOYS !

Well in, lads.
Worthy winners if, for nothing else, the performance v Barca.

Terrible news about Reyes

They deserved something for this season

I honestly think they'll keep a hold of the better players now and challenge for the league again next season, this will give them the lift after missing out on that

It does seem the league is their number 1 love affair they can't achieve, they've won the Champions League twice in the past 14 years, making 4 finals in the process in that time, which tells you they seem more relaxed in it

Man City are the opposite, seem to win the league without trying but can't win what they class as the big one

6 times

Congratulations guys. Enjoy it!

Perhaps we can meet again in the final next year and put on a better show

if city werent trying you could have fooled me,had ye earn every point with the battle we gave them

spurs fans,mistake to play kane?dull on the night but a player any team fears

Said a couple of weeks ago on here it doesn't matter how we get the job done but we really needed to win this trophy, get the final loser tag/pressure off JK's shoulders and boost the players that their hard work in the last couple of seasons has been rewarded with something tangible in Silverware.

Really poor game looked like a pre season in humid conditions, We were terrible on the ball in all fairness and pretty much let them have the ball for large chunks without gifting too many BIG chances, it's great we can win games now without having to be crash bang fantastic.

Bobby looked like a player that had been out for a while, he didn't look too happy coming off but it was the right call.On another night they could take a couple of their half chances and it's all completely different but the trophy is ours and that's all that fookin matters when you reach a final.

Makes next seasons build up psychologically completely different to what it would have been not bringing this one home.

was a poor game but the onus was on spurs to step up after we'd scored,no reason to bust a gut pool,spurs werent putting us under any pressure

agree see,monkey of jk's back is a biggie,we won it,we deserved to win it,onward with hope and good things abiding,vorsprung with jurgy the superstar

Back on  coach, everyones wrecked but buzzing. Party on redmen

Great end to the season and well deserved for how we've played all season.

The game was poor with both sides miles off their games imo, 3 week break cannot have helped but then finals are not about how you play, it's about lifting the cup an we did that.

We've been top class nearly all season (bar a few games) and it would have been cruel had we not won a trophy, think most would have rathered that be the one 3 weeks ago but we'll give that a bash again next season.

Thought Allisson was brilliant last night, didn't have loads to do but his positioning was top class, his handling brilliant when it needed to be and that pass to Salah in the 2nd half was stunning......A year on it shows the difference a good man between the sticks makes.

Shout out to Derek as well who when needed toward the end of the season really stepped up and his finish last night was magic.

Sorry lads...Liverpool will have to wait a bit longer to be the SECOND English club to win the 'Full set' of trophies after Man Utd

Wicked and wonderful..............words fail me as there is nothing adequate to describe last nite.

We waited on a grass bank at Islington for a few hours, the parade came through there at 18:35. Then followed the parade for a mile or so all the way round to past the Liver building where the crowds were just heaving. Amazing to be part of it today, so many happy smiling faces.

Yeh , It was heaving around QD , too . Brilliant , Happy , Happy Day .

Well what an absolutely fantastic weekend that was.
To be a Liverpool fan after the events of the last few days is just great.
So many remarkable events to be proud of....

Hope all the fellow fans on here now have some memories like ours that you can look back on and treasure.

We argue,slaughter,bicker,but share a common theme,and we cant argue that we got there and thoroughly deserved that Big Cup,Again...

What superb shape were now in to push and and really really pressure those around us,praying Klopp signs that longterm deal and this is only the beginning of what has already been a great period of football since the big fella took over.

Enjoy the extended celebrations lads,I am....

As for the game,think they really need look at the timing,too long imo.
No need for such a gap.Definitely did not help us.
Started well but we were poor,which cares though,really who cares.

Goalkeeper fantastic,doubt we even win it with previous 2 in there,fortunately now an absolute pillar in goals,4 out of 5 in back four be present for next 5 years,what a wonderful thought that is.

We were scrappy but never stopped believing,worked tirelessly and at the end if the day the couldn't score,we nicked another,game over...

Also thought Klopp got far the better of it tactically, beat Poch to the subs and git them correct, Poch did not.

Start of a huge period for us,huge,2,3 good signings and we will really kick on now.

Having experienced the last few days well take the league sometime soon,wouldn't swap the last few days for anything.

YNWA.ALLEZ ALLEZ ALLEZ.

Amen to that jedi.... What a few days!! I'm absolutely broken.

Just so pleased for Klopp more than anyone else. Had we lost, I wouldn't have felt any differently about him or the job he's done / doing, its clear most of our fans love him unconditionally. But its great for him to shut those people up who still wanted to criticise him. And it would have been a crying shame if his time at Liverpool didn't have something big to show for it. He still hasn't lost a two legged tie in three seasons with us. That's nothing short of phenomenal and I just hope he starts to get the respect he deserves.

Hopefully this will be the kickstart for us now. We have everything in place to have a really strong couple of seasons. To my eyes, we are the best run club in the division and hopefully its about to start bearing fruit. Its still such a young side as well. And we can play almost any way required. Blitz the best teams in the world like Barca 4-0, or play badly but rely on the best back five in Europe to hold on to small leads. Its a massive advantage going forward.

As for the game, I think the early goal hugely affected us. Once ahead we wanted to sit in and try and play them on the counter, but the focus seemed mostly on defending. Which is hard to criticise really. And how good is our defending? Finals are about getting the job done, not playing attractive football. I know I would have been distraught if that penalty was given against us... it was pretty soft, even if it appears it was the correct interpretation of the rules. But I don't think Spurs can have too many complaints overall, don't think they did enough to win the agme. Hottest stadium Ive ever been into in my life as well... and a very dry pitch. Both were a factor in the game being so limited imo.

Had a great laugh with plenty of Spurs fans on the day... good banter and camaraderie and never saw a cross word. In fact there were several Spurs fans around being consoled by Liverpool fans which was exactly how it should be and great to see. Hope Poch can win the trophy he deserves soon as well.

Took my kids to the Parade yesterday and that was special. They literally couldn't believe the amount of people there. It felt different to 2005... That was a miracle. A one off for a team that just over performed. This felt different, like we had won because we are one of the best sides in Europe again. Back on our perch

Just never want it to end.

Klopp is special.
Underneath the smiles the joking etc I'll bet there is a hugely steely demanding hard nosed manager.
The players love him as much as the fans and that is key.
Keep what we have and add 3,4 at most.

We all know who should go,can we get them gone and get paid,I'll say we can.

The funds rolling in after this,I'm full up buying the merch relating to the win for my 3 too.

Glad you enjoyed CCM.Was magical.
Think be Wednesday or so before I come round..

ccm no premiership the scum no european cup the world a better place

Watching the game on the night I thought we were below average never really felt we played any real football but as that’s not our normal level or a level I have seen us at this year then it became all about getting a result anyway we could

Having watched it three times since and without the nerves it didn’t seem as bad as I first thought although still not great as people say it’s not how you play in finals that counts it’s winning them

Don’t think we were lucky but glad the penalty wasn’t the deciding goal anyway going forward it’s a while since we haven’t had to face the prospect of having to replace our better players but simply add players to compliment them

There’s also players who will or can add more to us who are already there gomeaz Kieta chamberlain lalana if fit brewster if he can progress I’m hoping we can stay in the domestic cups a little longer as I think there’s merit in competing and hopefully winning them

We will actually be in six competitions offering prizes and hopefully we compete and try to win them all next few weeks will be interesting to see who goes or who stays some will have to move if they want regular football others may opt for one year contract extensions guess it’s the clubs perogative to keep or move

Lots of clubs will be rebuilding this pre season and I think it helps us if we are not the only credible opponents to city during a season

Going to be extra hard in the league next season with this Club World Championship sh1te in December RP. Worst time of the season to have extra games.

I read no WCC this year. Now every 4 years.

It will be hard but we want to be in all these comps it’s a mark of where we are at and there’s no telling how difficult the league campaign will be because the season might not be just a two team shootout with city bieng able to rack up as many victories

This team now Ned’s to become serial winners it’s already become serious competitors and whilst obviously we want the bigger ones picking up one or a couple of things each season wil help everyone

Sounds like you had a great time in Madrid CCM. Well done, knew Klopp wouldn't lose seven finals in a row.....

Felt sick after you'd won but its been coming for a while I suppose.

Is it safe to put the telly on yet?

absolutely brilliant weekend
well deserved win against a very good spurs team who have a top manager as well
we have recruited fantastically and the squad is going from strength to strength
we did what we needed to do in the game - going one nil up so early obviously changed the way we approached the game

we have a couple of younger players coming through who have a great chance of making the grade so we are developing our own as well

what about that parade yesterday - was unreal 750,000 on the streets wow

of the 9 European Cup Finals we have played in, who on here was present at any (all?!) of them?

just Istanbul (also drove to Dortmund for UEFA in 01..6-goal thriller and a 9-goal thriller!)

cool Duncan! The night every football fan was wishing they supported Liverpool

Cant be many that have been to all 9?

Guy at my work was at Hillsborough, helped get people out. He seems to never miss a game. Sent him an email today asking him how many he has been to. Didn't get a reply so I guess he wasn't in today

What a weekend. Wasn't pretty but fully deserved. FWIW, don't think it was a pen, but who cares. How many important goals has Divock got this season?

Lets talk about 6 baby, lets talk about you and me,lets talk about all the good things and the bad things that may be, lets talk about 6, lets talk about 6!!!

YNWA

Like very many, I watched all 9 finals on TV, not like being there for sure...............

Never been to an away tie in European footie, sadly, when I graduated and had a well paid job, and could afford to follow my team in Europe, we were banned ...............I haven't felt like going since that fateful nite in Brussels.

Cheers Pete. I'd give it another few days if I were you! Must admit I was starting to feel like Klopp myself... had lost the last five Finals Id been to. We've all got the Monkey off our backs now!

Seen some truly devastated Blues the past 24 hours

Attended heysel most surreal event ever

Hi Redmen, Great to see Klopp winning a final and sorting out the club ,hope he signs a few new players to keep everyone on there toes etc
Fantastic spectacular parade brought tears to my eyes ...

Cannot see those two departures in anything other than a positive light..
Both contributed less and less,correct decision 100 percent imo.

Werner would seem like a very good fit to my eye. Versatile,quick,scores goals.
Rb said will go if doesn't sign new deal.

Best wishes to both. Although I have to say Moreno gave me absolute fits,could not have him as a top player ever,at any stage in his career here,a very very lucky boy to have been at our club so long.

Moreno got on very well with the south american lads. Really think this was important to Klopp

Good article on Klopp:

https://www.football365.com/news/when-all-bayern-can-offer-klopp-is-a-rest-liverpool

Had his bio delivered today,just never got round to ordering.
Sneaked it in with the new tee shirts.

Read it a few weeks ago jedi, very enjoyable.

Simon Hughes got a new book out soon. Should be good.

Still enjoying watching all the vids of the partying and celebrations. Jurgen must need his stomach pumping.

Yeah me too... seen almost every clip of anything related to the whole weekend I reckon!

Love the VVD tweet of the fanzone singing his song. What a buzz that must be. No wonder he has told the club he wants to extend his deal

Extensions the way forward for our group...
2,3 in to upgrade departures.
Thanks CCM.Just finished one on the Pep v Mourinho rivalry,,interesting!

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2019/06/04/liverpool-consider-anfield-r...

I went to Queens Drive and took a few pics of the homecoming . It was a great day !

Great stuff Culvin.

will be interested to watch De Ligt tonight given our interest in him

Surely the priority should be to strengthen in the full back areas given how important the left back and right back positions have been as our game has developed from the previous season and the number of assists
I thought that when our form dipped slightly was when we were struggling to cover those positions
Clyne went and then Moreno but I really never saw Moreno as good enough cover for Robbo
Focus will also be on a creative midfielder but I see Keita developing next season and I see this as less of a priority than the full backs

De Light doesnt make any sense to me rothko. Just cant see it happening.

Gomez looked exceptional before his injury, Matip has been exceptional since. We don't need a big money CB as it looks like we have 3 of the best in the league already.

Seen some links with Pepe. Not totally sold on him, is a bit of a show pony imo, but if anyone can get the best out of him, then its Klopp. Im wondering if we signed someone like him, then the plan might be to have three pacy attackers and Bobby in the hole? He's done it before and hasn't really had his best season as the false nine for some games?

We've so many options and ways of playing now.... best shape we've been in for decades.

It seems a strange one to me CCM given what he will costs but given he is not 20 till August perhaps its an eye to the future
Not sure what Lovrens future is at Liverpool so if he goes the thinking must be that we need 4 top class centre halfs

Remember watching the young CB against wolves in the FA cup and was impressed but probably a couple of years away from starting in the PL

THANKS! Charlton .

I’ve not seen much of hm in fact nothing at all but imo we could wait a season see how Gomez develops if matip can continue bat a decent level and if Lovren can become less rash and inconsistent

We need more goals from midfield and even attack because that’s what will make up any ground on city full back cover as mentioned although I wouldn’t worry if Camacho was given some game time looks raw but interesting

After such a season it’s easy to rest on your laurels but I think we need at least two signings imo

it looks like Brewster is going to be given a shot as a replacement for Sturridge

Gomez has only just turned 22... I havent seen loads of De Light, but I just dont think he can be that much better than Gomez myself. I'll be amazed if we sign him tbh.

I agree we need to keep pushing on and strengthen though. Its a nice feeling trusting the club and whatever they do will no doubt be right!

Yeah I think Brewster will definitely figure a bit more. Exciting times for the lad.

Yes totally agree it’s nice to be adding and not replacing

just on Camacho RP I see that wolves may put in a bid for him. He has a year left on his contract and I think he will go
he doesnt consider himself a defender. His quote is

"I'm not a right defender, I'm an attacker who scores goals. This is my DNA."

He certainly scores some from the little I’ve seen of him and yes I’ve seen him playing right back and right midfield and up top all in same game lol

I think over the last few years we have got decent money on players we have sold meaning squad and young players we seem to demand a decent premium

I'm having an operation tomorrow to have this permanent smile removed from my face. Been there since around 10 o'clock last Saturday night. Surgeon reckons he'll have a job on his hands removing it. Could be there all summer & beyond he says

Not sure if anything has happened in the last few days just woke up with a very sore head!!!!!!

Happy fkg days!!!!

What about these ar5ehole England fans booing Virgil what a bunch of d1ckheads

Been warned my neighbours and colleagues are about to take out an injunction to finally stop me singing the Gini song.


You'll never take me alive ****s!

New away kit.
What is all that about?
Horrid,wint be getting that for the kids....

Personally, I've always liked the white away top, and this one is no exception. Like the retro 80's new home kit also.

1 week in of being Champs of Europe, it suits us. Booing big Virg is total respect for a legend.

Liverpool in Navy.
No thanks.

Cheering for Vvd n Gini tomorrow,more success and confidence a great thing...
On to the Shield and lift that too.

Never new Jurgen turned down the United job ?

Have to say I think De Ligt looks like a wonderful young centre back,if a tad pricey....
Hes 19 years old,Ajax captain,a rock for the Dutch beside the big man.
I'd love him to sign for us.
Much rather pay what talking about for him than some untried winger from French league or so.
